Mushroom 101

Mushrooms are fungi! So they are in a space all their own, set apart from plants and animals. The body of a mushroom stores nutrients. Mushrooms are nutritious. They are a good source of B vitamins. It is said that they rank the highest among vegetables when it comes to protein.

What Kind Of Mushrooms Do I Use For Stuffed Mushrooms?

I used a baby portabellas for this stuffed mushroom recipe. You can easily use a full sized portabella or use a button mushroom. You basically just need to fill the mushrooms with the delicious bread crumb mixture. So the mushroom you use is up to you!

I liked the size of the “baby bellas.” They weren’t too big or too small! They look beautiful before even going under the broiler!

How do you bake stuffed mushrooms?

These aren’t really baked, they are broiled. I like a more “tough” or chewy mushroom in my dishes. If you do not, then I would suggest that you actually broil the mushrooms naked for 3-4 minutes to soften them.

Then you can proceed with the recipe as indicated below. This extra time will help to make them less chewy.

Out of the oven they are even more beautiful! Especially, when you toss some diced fresh flat leaf parsley on those easy stuffed mushrooms! That green color just makes the goodness POP!

If you are looking to make vegan stuffed mushrooms, you can use vegan parmesan cheese or omit the cheese all together. Want to add a little spice? You can season the mushrooms with black pepper or cayenne pepper!

Can I Stuff Mushrooms The Night Before?

The best part about making these vegetarian stuffed mushrooms is you can assemble them a day or two before. Then just cover and refrigerate until ready to bake.
